ETA: BTW, why the switch from the fossil record to genetics? Not finding fossils all that compelling?
Gee, it's almost as if you don't have any evidence at all to present, given that you've fallen back on a completely unsubstantiated argument from design.
Switch? You mean additional sources of compelling empirical evidence?
What empirical evidence for God's existence and intelligent design did you present again?
Your failure to understand science does not indicate scientific consensus is faulty. It indicates you don't understand the evidence, and yet fancy yourself an expert at interpreting it.
There's a term for that.
Quote:The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than is accurate. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their ineptitude.[1] Actual competence may weaken self-confidence, as competent individuals may falsely assume that others have an equivalent understanding.
